January 2017

Global professional services group Russell Bedford International has further strengthened its presence in Switzerland with the addition of new member firm KBT Treuhand AG (KBT Group).

Founded in 1990, KBT Group is a full-service accounting, tax and audit practice, based primarily in the German-speaking region of Switzerland, with offices in Zurich, Aarau, Baar (Zug), Nyon (Vaud) and Sarnen (Obwalden). With six partners and a team of some 60 staff, the group offers a broad range of services to both domestic and international clients, serving them in German, English, French, Italian and Russian. The group also offers a range of business support services through its KBT Treuhand Business Center AG.

Alan Bezzant, CEO of Russell Bedford International, commented: "We are delighted to welcome KBT Group on board. The past 12 months have seen Russell Bedford boost its European multi-location national networks in Germany, the Netherlands and now Switzerland. As well as ensuring that clients have access to the expertise they need internationally, our local market-leading member firms are able to provide clients with consistently high-quality services as they grow their businesses in their domestic markets."

KBT partner Sandro Müller added: "While Russell Bedford's strong global presence is a major plus for us, it is reassuring to know that our clients can be assured of the same high quality standards in their operations throughout the country and across Europe too."
